'Last-ditch' pair of WH (Heeres) later-war period- (ie. 'simplified'- ie. 'M44- o. M45'-pattern) NCO-type shoulderstraps as intended for a: 'Oberfeldwebel der Infanterie-Trpn.'

The truly very attractive - and actually quite unusually seen! - WH (Heeres) 'Infanterie'-related NCO-type shoulderstraps do show the desirable white- (ie. 'weisser'-) coloured and/or: typical 'silk-like'-type piping attached and measure approximately 11,5 cms. in length each and are clearly of the so-called: 'last-ditch'- (ie. 'M44 o. M45'-) pattern. The shoulderstraps are constructed from the (typical field-grey-toned-) later-war-type wool (as can be seen on pictures). The straps come naturally mounted onto their truly simplified tongues (which are both constructed from a piece of greyish-green-coloured- and/or linnen-based cloth ie. braid) and do show just moderate usage nor wear ie. age: just one of the tongues shows some damage (as can be seen on the pictures). The straps have the silverish-yellow-toned (ie. somewhat sub-dued) NCO braid and four (fully matching, regular-sized and/or typical zinc-based) pips period-attached denoting the NCOs rank of: Oberfeldwebel (ie. sergeant first-class). The pair was I deem just moderately used and/or worn as such (as can be noticed on the pictures). It should be noted that these matching pairs of white-piped- thus 'Infanterie'-related and/or later-war period- (ie. 'simplified'- 'M44- o. M45'-pattern-) NCO-type shoulderstraps are very desirable and can easily be graded 'very scarce' even more so when they come in this very nice and only moderately used- and/or worn, condition!
